On the loop you just did, instead of turning left onto Vimiera Rd and heading up to Epping Rd, turn right instead. Go down the shared path through Browns Waterhole and climb up Kissing Point Rd to Turramurra. You can turn around at the Pacific Hwy and enjoy the fast descent, or continue through Turramurra and cycle down into Bobbin Head!

Another option is to head out early (6am start) to SOP on Tues and Thurs mornings for a high intensity training ride for 45 minutes-ish and then continue onto work. Combine the high iontensity with some hill work from the river up to MacQuarie Park!

first post here but tacking it on here as I'm looking for something similar.

I grew up in Sydney but now live in the US - I am in town right now for about a month. Looking for some options for a 30-50km loop starting/finishing in Lane Cove (I'm pretty close to the Longueville/Pac Hwy junction). I'm familiar with geography around here but not really much bike infrastructure, especially stuff built in the last 5-10 years. I haven't been in Sydney for 3 yrs and was surprised to see the cycling improvements in the CBD last time I was in town.

Any tips/links to good routes on ridewithgps/endomondo etc. welcome. I have over 10000 kms in my legs this year and don't want to lose my fitness, plus it's winter in the US now

Here is an idea for a slightly harder ride, hang a left when you hit Lane Cove Rd/Ryde Rd and then right into the national park, quick warm up lap and then hit up the side road climbs and then attack fullers (brutal short climb) and follow that up to chatswood. From there should be a nice roll to the gore hill bike path and cruise your normal way into work
